Our improved version of the Finnish military issue M05 woodland camo pants – this is the choice if you must have the officially approved pants for parades, HQ work, and such. Looks just like the official issue stuff, but performs a little bit better! Officially approved for use in Finnish Defence Forces reserve practice (M05 RES)!

Product details

Description

The key feature of these pants is their official FDF RES approval: they are the best choice for formal duty and ceremonial use. But if you’re actually heading into the field, you’ll want our L4 Field Pants or L4 Combat Pants instead!

High waist with elastic band adjustment. The band has to be used to make the waist sit right! Otherwise these will feel very loose on the waist.
Zipper fly with button.
50 mm (2") wide belt loops.
Elastic bands in the leg ends.
Articulated knees and pockets for knee pad inserts.
Two side pockets and two cargo pockets.
Fabric: 50/50 CO/PES.
Kroko zippers.
All materials are NIR compliant.

In comparison with the Finnish military official issue M05 trousers we have lifted the waist higher, made the side slash pockets deeper and enlarged the cargo pockets to better fit maps, etc.

Official M05 RES approved clothing

M05 RES is an official Finnish Defence Forces inspection and approval system for commercially produced military clothing. A garment that is M05 RES approved is officially approved for use in military military exercises and other fun activities that the FDF organizes.

The M05 RES system is a small step in the right direction and a huge change in the general attitude of the Finnish military complex. Whereas ten years ago a simple non-issue dump pouch could get you in trouble we now have the possibility to create commercial clothing that can be officially approved for use. For us Finns, this is a very, very welcome change and a good beginning to build on!

Sewn in the EU

These are now sewn in Poland by Unifeq.

Size guide

Sizes are shown in US-style (eg. "L Regular") followed by measurements, first waist circumference, then inseam length.

Official M05 sizing

In the trousers you will find a three digit number sizing as required by Finnish military. The first number (6-9) indicate length category and the next two (46-66) stand for width in the European standard men's sizing.

Suggested user measures for both size categories:

The trousers have a loose waist, because this is how the FDF specified it: should you choose a precisely fitting waist, the thighs and hips will prevent you from squatting. Please use the elastic waistband to adjust the fit: pull the width of your palm out for a good starting point.

Fashion fit: pick one size narrower than the official recommendation (realize you might not be able to squat)
FDF fit: tighten the waist adjustment (will be a bit tight around the thighs and butt)
Combat fit: pick one size wider and tug the elastic waistband until you're ready to kill-kill-kill!

The fabric will shrink in the first wash, this is accounted for in the cut. If you served in the Finnish army and these new clothes seem a bit larger than the issued ones, this is the reason.

These are one of our most returned products, all because people can't/don't use the waistband adjustment and the trousers are perceived as too large.

Technical details and instructions

Materials

Fabric is Foxa Cooltex 3, 50/50 polyester/cotton, 275 g/m2. This is the exact same material used in the latest production runs of the official issue uniforms. Naturally, the camo print is totally NIR compliant, so you don´t need to fear looking all lit-up when viewed through NVDs.

To make sure the fabric does not lose its NIR compliant properties we recommend careful wash using only detergents that are free of optical brighteners, basically, the more natural you get the better.
